When Shen Fu returned to the kitchen, Ning Wan was looking at him with wide, curious eyes.
Shen Fu embraced her and naturally kissed the corner of her lips: "Why are you staring at me like that?"
"Something's not right with you," Ning Wan said. "Why are you keeping him working at the store?"
Ning Wan had heard his conversation with Shen Yurong very clearly.
Although she didn't particularly dislike Shen Yurong, she still felt somewhat uncomfortable having the Shen family members in the shop.
Shen Fu gently brushed away the stray hairs from her bangs and explained softly, "In a while, Sister Xu will be moving to the area near the south of the city."
Ning Wan nodded: "I know that."
Because Zhao Shuigen's new construction site is too far from Longshou Village, he spends far more time commuting than resting every day.
Xu Xiufeng then planned to rent a house near the construction site.
Anyway, Zhao Jiajia is busy with the high school entrance exam and has been staying at school lately. She plans to move back after Zhao Shuigen's construction site is finished.
As a result, Xu Xiufeng could no longer stay and work in Ning Wan's shop.
Shen Fu also took this into consideration, which is why he thought of finding someone to replace Xu Xiufeng in advance.
“But can Shen Yurong do it?” Ning Wan asked doubtfully. “And why does it have to be him?”
“Because he’s stupid and easy to fool,” Shen Fu said bluntly. “Besides, Wanwan has heard of a phrase, ‘the fox borrows the tiger’s power.’”
Shen Yurong was indeed a bit slow-witted.
But keeping him in the shop as a warning to some mischievous mice is still somewhat useful.
Seeing Shen Fu's confident demeanor, Ning Wan curled her lips slightly: "Aman, your smile is quite cunning."
Upon hearing this, Shen Fu's expression immediately changed.
He asked hesitantly, "Isn't this bad? Will Wanwan hate me for doing this?"
Ning Wan shook her head, wrapped her arms around his neck, and said affectionately, "I absolutely love the way you look!"
Hearing Ning Wan say that, Chen Fu's smile deepened, and his love grew even stronger...
...
The next day, just as Shen Fu had guessed.
After some hesitation, Shen Yurong still came.
Because he didn't know anything and was still in the internship stage, Ning Wan only paid him a monthly salary of 1,600 yuan.
"It's 3202 already, who only earns 1600 a month?!"
Shen Yurong stared wide-eyed in disbelief, muttering under his breath, "Last time I asked Lao Jin for a favor, I at least spent 2,000 yuan..."
Lao Jin.
The guy who framed Ning Wan for not being clean, who ended up getting 13,800 yuan in hush money, was the one who ended up being reported by Ning Wan for extorting money.
Shen Fu tied on his apron and stood in front of the stove: "Take it or leave it."
Who would give him a friendly look?
Upon hearing this, Shen Yurong panicked: "I didn't say I wouldn't do it. I'll do it, I'll do it, okay..."
Although 1600 yuan a month is indeed very low, with Li Hongxia reimbursing his travel expenses, he can still earn 6600 yuan a month.
After leaving last time, Shen Xu kept making a fuss about wanting to come and find Ning Yanshu.
Contrary to her usual practice, Li Hongxia did not refuse; instead, she took the initiative to enroll him in the kindergarten where Ning Yanshu attended.
Shen Xu has never attended school.
Because of his autism, regular schools do not accept children like Shen Xu.
Li Hongxia was also reluctant to send him to a special school. She had always only hired private tutors to teach him at the Shen family home.
But Shen Xu always showed little interest in this and couldn't muster any enthusiasm for it.
Knowing that Shen Xu liked Ning Yanshu and wanted to stay by Ning Yanshu's side, Li Hongxia took this opportunity to bring him to Ning Yanshu's kindergarten to register.
The intention is to gradually open up Shen Xu's closed-off heart and cure his illness.
When the opportunity arises in the future, I can return to a normal life.
Although Shen Xu's actual age was well past the kindergarten's admission standard, no one could resist the allure of money.
From that day on, Shen Yurong not only had to get up early every day to pick up and drop off Shen Xu at kindergarten.
After dropping off the children, I still have to rush to Ning Wan's shop to work.
Li Hongxia was very pleased with this.
The fare, which was originally 5,000 yuan, has continued to rise to 8,000 yuan.
In fact, Ning Wan didn't have much hope from the beginning that Shen Yurong would come to work at the store.
He was just a good-for-nothing playboy.
After discovering the extraordinary lives of ordinary people, they simply went to the countryside to participate in the "Transformation" program.
But Shen Yurong's insistence did surprise her.
From frequently making mistakes as a waiter at the beginning to becoming proficient later on.
Shen Yurong is now perfectly adept at navigating relationships with various customers.
He not only stopped serving the wrong dishes, but also helped recommend dishes and introduce them, chatting warmly with the customers.
Although Shen Yurong was not like Xu Xiufeng, he could help Ning Wan with chopping vegetables and preparing ingredients.
But after being scolded, he was still willing to do chores like greeting guests and washing dishes.
With Shen Yurong around, Ning Wan could avoid being provoked by many ill-intentioned men through words and actions.
So overall, Ning Wan felt that the 1,600 yuan was well spent.
In the evening, to express gratitude to Lin Guihua and Zheng Nan for their hard work during this time, and also to celebrate Grandma Chen's safe discharge from the hospital, and to give a farewell dinner to Ning You and her family who are about to study abroad.
Ning Wan specially prepared a table full of delicious dishes at the restaurant to entertain everyone.
In the small boxed lunch restaurant, all the tables and chairs were pushed to the corner, leaving only a huge round table in the center.
The round table was laden with fine wine and food, each dish vibrant in color, making one's appetite eager to devour it.
